Maranata Renovations completed the professional installation of 1" Vivo Desert Penny Round Glass Mosaic Tile as part of a custom bathroom flooring renovation in Victoria, BC.

This project involved detailed substrate preparation, waterproofing, floor layout, mosaic tile installation, grouting, and finishing to create a durable and visually appealing bathroom floor. Special attention was given to the alignment of the penny round mosaic sheets to maintain consistent spacing and a seamless appearance throughout the installation.

The floor was professionally waterproofed using a RedGard waterproofing membrane before tile installation to provide moisture protection and long-term durability. Careful planning and layout ensured accurate placement around floor penetrations, drains, and bathroom fixtures while preserving the clean, uniform look of the mosaic pattern.

The finished bathroom floor combines durability, slip resistance, and timeless design, showcasing Maranata Renovations' expertise in mosaic tile installation, waterproofing systems, floor preparation, and bathroom renovations.

Maranata Renovations completed this bathroom ceramic tile flooring project with a focus on proper surface preparation, durability, and a clean professional finish. The existing floor was carefully prepared and leveled using LevelQuik self-leveling underlayment to create a stable and even substrate for the new tile installation.

A Schluter-DITRA uncoupling membrane was installed over the prepared wood subfloor to help protect the tile assembly from movement and provide a reliable substrate for the ceramic tile.

The bathroom toilet was carefully removed before the flooring installation and professionally reinstalled after the ceramic tile and finishing work were completed. Careful attention was given to the cuts and layout around the toilet and other bathroom fixtures for a clean, precise result.

This project demonstrates Maranata Renovations’ expertise in bathroom ceramic tile installation, floor preparation, self-leveling, Schluter-DITRA installation, and complete bathroom flooring renovations in Victoria, BC.

Professional ceramic tile flooring installation completed for a residential bathroom in Victoria, BC. This project included complete floor preparation and leveling to create a strong, stable, and perfectly flat surface before tile installation.

To ensure a professional finish, the existing toilet was removed so the flooring could be installed properly throughout the bathroom. After leveling the subfloor, a Schluter-DITRA uncoupling membrane was installed to help protect the tile installation and provide long-term durability.

Large-format ceramic tiles were installed in a 50% offset (brick-pattern) layout with careful attention to alignment, spacing, and overall appearance. Once the installation was completed, grout was applied, the finishing details were completed, and the toilet was reinstalled, leaving the bathroom fully functional and ready for use.

This project began with proper preparation of the existing wood subfloor. The floor was carefully prepared and leveled using LevelQuik self-leveling underlayment to create a smooth, even and suitable surface for the tile installation.

Because the existing structure was a wood subfloor, Schluter-DITRA uncoupling membrane was installed over the prepared surface. DITRA helps manage movement between the wood substrate and the tile assembly, helping protect the finished tile installation from stresses that can occur in wood floor systems.

After the substrate preparation and DITRA installation were completed, large-format marble-look porcelain tiles were carefully laid out and installed with precise cuts, consistent joints and professional finishing.

The result is a durable, elegant and modern entryway with a high-quality porcelain tile installation designed for long-term performance.
